Portable gas heaters are unflued models needing only a gas bayonet outlet and (usually) a power point to plug into, but need an open window or door so as to vent the noxious gases. 

Flued gas heaters require a flue kit and space to put the kit so they can vent noxious gases outdoors. Each deliver quick, efficient warmth, and lots of it – but they’re not right for everyone. See our buying guide for advice on whether this type of heater is a good option for you, and find out how we test gas heaters.

If you are heating a small space, you might be better off looking at our electric heater reviews. For large spaces, reverse-cycle air conditioners can be a more energy-efficient and cost-effective option in the long term, and of course offer cooling in summer as well.
